I invest untold amounts of money in my intellectual property and that alone should qualify a person to being given a legal monopoly on those works.I don't mind people using my legally created software but if they make money on the software or similar I require a license to be agreed to or I can claim infringement, based on loss of profits, no matter how long it takes me to create profit on my own efforts if ever because social and ecomonic disadvantage is real and so if only rich corporations can develope ideas to profit then I suggest the corporations buy us all out of the software creating business.I'll sell my 56 computer programs but not cheap.
